Synthesis of halogenoazoles

On reaction with halogens, organolithium and organomagnesium derivatives of azoles are converted into halogenoazoles. Halogen derivatives of N-substituted imidazoles, benzimidazoles, and indazoles have been studied.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 8, pp. 1109–1111, August, 1973.     

The activation energy as guiding factor in the fragmentation of substituted diphenylmethanes

The mass spectra of a series of substituted diphenylmethanes were obtained. The mass spectral features were compared with those of the corresponding 1,2 diphenylethanes and discussed in terms of the factors which influence the electron-impact fragmentation. In the series examined, it is shown that the activation energy is the most important factor in determining cracking patterns. The meaning of the averaged rate constants is criticised.     

An ESR study of some organic complexes of tetravalent vanadium

ESR results are reported for solutions and glasses containing vanadyl diethyldithiophosphate, vanadyl and vanadium diethyldithiocarbamates, and vanadium butylxanthogenate. Comparison with compounds of known structure gives the structures of these complexes.     

Effectiveness of initiation in the reaction of cumene hydeopeeoxide with paramethoxyphenol

Conclusions It was shown by a study of the kinetics of the oxidation of cumene in the presence of the hyeroperoxide and p-methoxyphenol that in the reaction of the hydroperoxide with p-methoxyphenol, radicals are formed with an efficiency equal to 0.54 (120°).Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 10, pp. 2191–2194, October, 1972.
